Anders Christian Madsen reports on the Rick Owens show

Report by Anders Christian Madsen on 27 September 2013.

Stage scaffolding straight out of Rent towered over the runway in the blacked-out sports hall and scratching amplifier sounds slowly turned into a beat as members of American college step teams emerged on the staircases. If they were mimicking the hand-to-shoulder military move of Michael Jackson’s choreography for They Don’t Care About Us it perhaps wasn’t unintentional, because the raw emotion, rage, and empowerment eventually conveyed through the formidable spectacle put on wouldn’t have looked wrong in a mid-nineties MJ video.
